PLEASE READ VERY CAREFULLY - VERY IMPORTANT
Someone is sending out a very desirable screen-saver, the Budweiser
Frogs - BUDDYLST.ZIP. If you download it, you will lose everything!!!
Your hard drive will crash and someone from the internet will get your
screen name and password!

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!! IT JUST WENT INTO
CIRCULATION YESTERDAY, AS FAR AS WE KNOW. PLEASE DISTRIBUTE/INFORM THIS
MESSAGE.

This is a new, very malicious virus and not many people know about it.

This information was announced yesterday morning from Microsoft.

Please share it with everyone that might access the internet.

Once again, pass this along to EVERYONE in your address book so that
this may be stopped. Also do not open or even look at  any mail that
says "RETURNED OR UNABLE TO DELIVER". This virus will attach itself to
your computer components and render them useless. Immediately delete
mail items that say this. AOL has said that this is a very dangerous
virus and that there is NO remedy for it at this time.  Please practice
cautionary measures and forward this to all your on-line friends ASAP.
